Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

javachik, I'm definitely willing to chip in.

Our wings are not tired.
Yeah I don’t have the bandwidth to search the site and see who Amy’s fave is. If someone else does I’m happy to chip in too of course. I don’t know anything about how it works, just see people mentioning it here and there.
I’m sorry to hear so much sad news in our circle. My best to those who are struggling with loss.

I'm sorry, Kate! So many of my loved ones in pain. I want to wrap you all in love and comfort. And we can't even hug!

What is even happening?
Calli, I'm so sorry.
Amych, you and amyth are so linked in my mind, because I remember being new and vowing to not mix you up. I also remember talking on here about reading your board names as "ah mick" and "ah myth" even though I knew you both were Amy. I remember laughing as other people said your name was clearly "ah mitch" and not "ah mick." And it's dumb and I'm not conveying it well, but it's just a sweet little memory (to me) of a fun, light board conversation at B.org.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

There is also a contingent (which might just be me) (a contingent can too be 1 person!*) who reads it as Amy-chuh.
*(Okay, no it can't but I stand by my pronunciation anyway.)

It's ok, it's bittersweet to me too! And it's the smallest of all tiny hills of beans in all of this, but I am feeling the loss of my board name twin from a whole 10 miles away, and the fact that we've laughed over many years -- not at people getting us confused, but at the fact that we ourselves would sometimes do a double-take.

Because books.
As a member of the Amys , I nominate amyth as Amy Emeritus.
Also, Cindy is not the only one who pronounces them "a-myth" and "a-mick".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's not "ah," it's "ay." Ay-myth, Ay-mitch, Ay-skye.
